Chapter 86 – Jayler “I’m so sorry. That must be pretty hard for you.” Franco uttered with his very understanding tone and I can’t help but feel a little bit better. Had I known about their existence a long time ago, I would’ve already talked to them. I’d probably already ditched Jasper and Kenneth in exchange for Franco and Drake. I’m just hoping that after having this conversation, I would at least feel good about myself that I don’t have to hide to a few people. “Thanks guys.” “We are all going through that same hiding bullshit, aren’t we? And we totally understand how it’s hard for you to stay hidden in the closet.” Franco followed up. “My parents are very religious and it’s not like the modern religious people, they’re still stuck in the old belief that all homos are going straight up to hell.” Drake opened up and he’s totally relatable in so many levels. “Mine too. My dad, mostly. He’s very conservative and I’ve been lying to them that I have a crush on this certain girl jus

Chapter 87 – Jayler The next morning was both promising and frightening. I’m more than determined to own this day and finally tell Kenneth and Jasper about my true sexuality because if not now, when? When is a very difficult question because what if I never tell them and they’d go on with their own lives without knowing who I really am as their friend? And while I’m still veiled in fear, I’m still looking forward to knowing their reaction may it be violent, negative or positive. It took me hours last night just to enter some data in my heart and mind. I promised to myself that I’m going to be okay with whatever reaction I get from Kenneth and Jasper. I took the fastest in the shower and when I went downstairs to have breakfast, I noticed how everything changed overnight. Or at least that’s how it came off to me. My mom was now wearing her best smile that she has not worn in a very long while. She’s even serving dad, giving him some additional kisses and some pick-up lines as if they’

Chapter 88 – Jayler “Woah, Jasper! What’s wrong with you?” Kenneth asked and I could clearly tell something’s not right with Jasper and Kenneth’s quite puzzled just as I was. I have imagined a lot of scenarios prior to this engagement but I never thought of this specific one. Jasper appeared to be hateful, much hateful than Kenneth. In fact, Kenneth was the one who’s keeping Jasper away from hitting me. I know he was annoying and childish a little while ago but this was just a huge one-eighty turn for him. “Don’t tell me Jayler has been sucking your dick, Kenneth.” Jasper continued accusing Kenneth of things that aren’t even true. “What? I already have a boyfriend.” I uttered. “You’ve crossed the line, Jasper.” Kenneth spat calmly but then he pushed Jasper against the nearest wall. He easily slammed Jasper and then punched him in the stomach. “That’s enough, Kenneth!!!” I yelled and Kenneth was obedient enough as he took a step away from Jasper who was holding his stomach. “You’

Chapter 89 – Lance To say that I’m exhausted after the long performance at the wedding was definitely an understatement. I’m more than exhausted, in fact, I’m excited to sit down and have a moment but on the positive side of things, I’m through the roof and exceedingly satisfied with how we performed. I had this inner confidence that we will do well enough but I never would’ve thought we’ll be received pretty nicely by everyone in the audience. When I sang the original song that I wrote for Dominic and Valentine, we had a standing ovation and I thought it’s for the newly wedded couple but they were just standing in the middle of the dance floor watching me perform the original song. I saw how Dominic shed some tears and that’s when I knew I did him justice. By the time, I was done singing the first chorus, Dominic and Valentine finally began dancing. By the time we jumped out of the stage, I was more than satisfied and I feel very much happy with how everything went. I’m thinking abo

Chapter 90 – Lance It’s been several days since the wedding was over and everything went back to normal. So far nothing has gone weird or exciting and I might say it has gone back to being overtly typical. My life returned to waking up just doing my own stuff and then going to the café by the afternoon and going to my nightly gigs by nightfall. The only change I had was I am now starting to pull out all of the songs that I’ve shelved and began singing them trying find good bops because I know most of the songs that I wrote are either mid-tempo ballads or just a sad song with no sick beat. I understand the fact that in order to enter the scene, you should either have a real banger of a song or date someone famous so you could promote your music in their limelight. I’m not trying to count the days that has gone since the last time I’m with Jayler but I guess my mind’s doing it unconsciously for me. I still don’t have any form of communication with Jayler and I’ve been missing him every

Chapter 91 – Joyce Mendoza I’m the worst sister ever. I kept on telling myself that same phrase over and over again. And if I thought I’d be over it after three seemingly long fucking years, then I must be on some crack. The truth is, I’m just telling myself that just to make myself feel better when in reality I’m a horrible mess. The kind of mess no one wants. My mom secretly hates me. No one wants to date me. I don’t even want me now. “Miss Mendoza,” The manager sat right in front of me wearing that mask of disappointment that has become a very familiar thing to me. “Did you just raised your voice to an older woman who has stutter?” “I-I didn’t know she has a stutter because she was speaking fluently the first time. I thought she was just playing me to get a discount.” “I don’t even want to hear your explanation, Miss Mendoza. You went through the training and you still can’t execute a proper empathy. And clearly you did not read through our list of special customers. Mrs. Domin

Chapter 92 – Joyce They say time and tide wait for no man nor a woman. And I say that’s precisely true. Time has moved along and yet I feel like I’m stuck in the past for what I did and I’m having a strong gut feeling that I’m going to be stuck here for a longer while. Well, it’s not that I feel like it, I’m truly stuck in this mess and all I have now is myself. I have to atone for this debacle that I created myself. The stinging burn of guilt has been scorching me in the spine for years and I can’t do anything about it. I’ve got no other choice but to live with it. I’ve been cursed to be miserable and I honestly deserve it. I guess this is my karma and karma has been working harder than me. When I got out of the pizza parlor that I no longer work for after two short months, it was already past nine. It was freezing and I only have one stick of cigarette left to warm me through the night. I forgot I don’t have a car now because I sold it in order to pay for my tuition in college. I’
A Rhapsody for the Playboy Chapter Ninety-Three
Chapter 93 – Lance “Damn, you look like you’re really good at playing both cards.” The woman whispered breathily right into my earlobe. The hot steam coming off from her mouth gave me a nice pleasurable sensation. It’s more than enough to rev the engine of this train going towards the temples of heaven. “People say I’m a jack off all trades.” I teased giving her a seductive smile. I quickly grabbed the back of her head with one hand and the other, I was using to unbutton my shirt. “It looks like you’re packing down here.” The other guy spoke from down below. He was kneeling down and was busy unbuckling my belt. He’s a bit tipsy just like me and the woman I’m about to kiss and it’s taking him some time just to unbuckle the belt. “You’ll be surprised with my pet down there.” I mumbled teasing the guy. “Hahaha, I like it.” He let out a chuckle. “I have my own pet down here too and I’m sure they’ll find a way to meet each other real soon.” I slowly fastened my lips against the woman’
